Обсуждение: Datatypes in Embedded SQL

Hey all.

I've a questoin on embedded SQL. This is more a c question, i know, but i'm
going to ask anyway hoping there's another c developer looking who might be
able to help me out.

Thing is, I'm trying to declare a struct in the embedded SQL part in my
program, but the preprocessor complains about an 'unknown data type in line
162'. Is it not possible at all in Postgres? When i don't use the struct,
passing 4 variables instead, all goes well.
I Am using Postgres 7.0.2.

Regards,
Mic

static int DBinsRecord (  DBstruct *Values
)
{  int nError = 0;
  EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;   DBstruct *pRec = Values;  EXEC SQL END DECLARE SECTION;

  EXEC SQL     INSERT INTO channel     (line_nr     ,nick     ,type     ,line)     VALUES     ( :pRec->line_nr     ,
:pRec->nick    , :pRec->type     , :pRec->line);
 
  nError = sqlca.sqlcode;
  if (nError)     printf ("error (%d):\n%s\n", nError, sqlca.sqlerrm.sqlerrmc);
  return (nError);
}


with
typedef struct {  int  line_nr,       type;  char nick[10],       line[160];
} DBstruct;
